About Us

David and Suzi

We are currently living in South Seattle. We just celebrated our five year anniversary. Throughout the week, you’ll find us hanging out at home with our friends, working out, and being a part of our church community. A good weekend consists of a productive morning, brunch somewhere like the London Plane or the Barking Frog, walking around the city, and a coffeeshop like Ada’s or Caffe Vita.

In mid-2018, we welcomed our first daughter into the family. So now we spend a lot of time hanging out with her and introducing her to new things, and I drink about twice as much coffee as before. I briefly considered buying davidandsuzi.family.

Suzi

Suzi is pursuing creative endeavors at humbleflourishings.com. After graduating with a music degree from the University of Oklahoma, she moved to Seattle and has spent time working in accounts payable at a small cruise company as well as currently being a secretary at a small family law firm. Some of her creative interests include graphic design, photography, and calligraphy. Besides that, she has invested much time growing the women’s ministry at our church as well as volunteering at a juvenile detention center with REST.

She doesn’t blog here a lot (David tried to get her to do it more often, but it’s been a matter of years; it doesn’t help that this is a Markdown blog without a real UI, as it’s just Github hosted). But you can keep up with her on Instagram.
